Chapter 3: Exchange and encounter of the sons and daughters of destiny.
**After Jiang Yun exchanged his Heavenly Demon body and heart with the system, a sense of stability and strength made him smile with satisfaction. Although he had to give up the Heaven-Slaying Sword, his divine body, and his cultivation skills, the decision to take the risk and reclaim the Time Body, Samsara Body, and Stellar Body was worth it.**
As Jiang Yun prepared to return to his peak, he encountered a female disciple blocking his way. She was Li Yudong, the sixth disciple of Lin Qingyi, and also the junior disciple he had taken care of since childhood.
Li Yudong was someone Jiang Yun had taught alchemy to. She had always shown him respect and relied on him, but after the arrival of the seventh junior disciple, her attitude towards Jiang Yun became indifferent.
When she saw Jiang Yun, she tried to say something, but before any words could come out, Jiang Yun ignored her and flew away immediately. His cold demeanor startled Li Yudong, who looked pitifully at him, hoping to draw his attention. But instead of responding gently, Jiang Yun released a killing intent toward her without mercy.
Li Yudong, shocked, remained silent, her pitiful demeanor replaced with fear. Jiang Yun paid her no further attention and continued on his way back to his peak.
Upon returning to his peak, he asked the system:
"If I fuse these bodies I've obtained, will any phenomena occur?"
The system responded straightforwardly:
[Certainly, Host! There will be a lot of effects; who knows, fish might even start running on land!]
Jiang Yun frowned, uninterested in the system's joke, and asked, "Can I hide it?"
The system replied confidently:
[I can help, Host, but of course, there will be a fee.]
Feeling annoyed, Jiang Yun nodded and began the fusion process. When the process was complete, his body changed significantly, but everything was perfectly concealed by the system.
Jiang Yun, after the fusion, consumed a Dragon Emperor-grade elixir with nine patterns, which further enhanced his understanding, his special professions, and cultivation to a level beyond his previous state. His special physique advanced another level, transforming into an Ice Sacred Body. His cultivation advanced to Nirvana Level 1, a level higher than the Divine Children in the other four sacred lands, whose highest cultivation level was only Soul Formation Level 8. Even his senior martial sister was only at Soul Formation Level 9.

Feeling pleased with his achievements, Jiang Yun asked the system, "Can I conceal my cultivation base?"
The system chuckled and replied, [Of course, but it will cost you a bit more, hehe.]
Before Jiang Yun could curse the system, a voice called out from outside—it was his fifth junior sister, Guan Mengyao, who had come to summon him to their master.
When he saw her, she displayed a cold and emotionless demeanor. Before she could say anything more, Jiang Yun flew straight toward their master's peak, surprising Guan Mengyao, who couldn't believe what she saw. Usually, Jiang Yun would greet her with a smile and joy.
Upon entering the palace atop his master's peak, he found a woman with a veil covering her face. She had cold, icy eyes and an exceptionally beautiful figure. Besides her, there were elders and some inner and outer disciples who had survived the demonic cultivator attack.
While he was observing the surroundings, the system's voice echoed in his mind.
[Ding! The Child of Destiny and the Daughter of Destiny detected.]
Jiang Yun maintained a calm face, but inside, he felt a surge of excitement. He turned to look in the direction indicated by the system without anyone noticing. He saw a man whose appearance was far inferior to his—this was his former body's seventh junior brother, Ye Chen. Since Ye Chen's arrival, everyone around him, including his master, senior sisters, and junior sisters, had changed completely.

"I had some suspicion, but I never thought he would be a demon spy, and even stole my bone, with a mysterious ring—just like a story I once read on Earth."
Then he looked at where the system detected the Daughter of Destiny. He saw a white-haired woman with a veil covering her face, but it could not hide her beautiful figure. It was none other than his master, Lin Qingyi.

He concealed his surprise under his calm expression and looked at two more women—one with clear blue hair and a well-shaped figure wearing modest clothes, and another with green hair, a captivating figure in a slightly revealing black dress. They were Zhang Xinye and Mu Chuyuan, the first and third disciples of Lin Qingyi.

After seeing everyone's luck, he thought this place was full of bizarre individuals with strange backgrounds and had some doubts. He asked the system:
"Hmph, the identities of these people are quite surprising, especially the Child of Destiny. What a strong background. But my master and third junior sister have unknown details. Can't you identify them, system?"
[Host must have a cultivation level of at least Emperor to discern some details.]
"Some details, huh? Fine, never mind. How can I see the luck of those who aren't Children of Destiny?"
[Ding! Once the shop opens, the host can purchase the Eye of Appraisal from the system shop.]
"Hmm, is that so? Can I borrow it for now?"
[No way! ?(???)?]
Damn system! Just you wait!
